We Want You to Know: Kids Talk About Bullying by Deborah Ellis is a collection of kids talking about their experiences with bullying. The author interviews more than 40 kids about their own bullying story; every story is real and describes their story of how they were before the bullying started, what happened, and how they picked up the pieces to be happy again. I really like how the author orgnaizes the book into 5 parts based on why each kid is bullied because it fully answers a question every victim wonders: Why are they chosen by the bullies to be teased and threatened? I would definitly recommend this book to teens because everyone should know that teasing and bullying others is unacceptable. Also, I love this book because I've been bullied before and this book really delivers the message that we are not alone. There are other people out there that are suffering the same thing at school; therefore, don't feel alone or be afraid to stand up for yourself or your peers. Always remember to be unique and most importantly, be happy.

It's Not Summer Without you is the sequel of the Summer I Turned Pretty by Jenny Han, and the relationships and storyline gets even better! A few months after that summer, everything changes. Susannah has passed away from cancer, Conrad had broken up with Belly, but most importantly, Conrad suddenly disappears out of nowhere. In order to find Conrad, Jeremiah and Belly goes on a seek to find him, but finds that the summer house might forever be gone. I really love how the author uses many descriptions to show how confused she is because of her relationship with the Fisher boys and how depressed she is for Susannah's death and her last summer. This book is full of many emotions and different ups-and-downs that Belly goes through, if you like a realistic romance novel, read this!

Kill Order is the 4th book in the Maze Runner series of what happened 13 years before the Maze and I love it! The story starts with New York City being attacked by solar flares, where Mark, Trina, Alec and Lana form an alliance. Together, along with a little girl named Deedee, they try to figure out what is happening to Earth and whether they can save the day. One of my favourite scenes in this book is when Mark and Trina send Deedee into WCKD headquarters. They also put a small note in her pocket saying that she's immune and asks them to take good use of her, I think it's really touching because it shows that Mark and Trina truly care about her and the world. Overall, this is an amazing book and if you love the Maze Runner Series and want to find out about more, definitely read this!

Shatter Me is one of the most interesting books I've read so far! Juliette is a girl that can kill people by touching them, for years, she's been inclosed in a closed room and hasn't talked to anyone since then. But when she meets Adam, she starts to believe that she can trust him and more importantly, be herself. Along the way she faces many difficulties, such as betrayal, lies, and escaping an obsessed lover of hers. One of my favourite characters in this book will certainly be Adam because he's really kind and is willing to risk anything for Juliette. This book is full of emotions and describes several topics teenagers struggle today such as crushes, friendships, trust, and honesty. If you love the Divergent series, you will enjoy this as well!

The Summer I Turned Pretty is one of the most amazing books I've read this year. Belly is finally going to be old enough to fit in with Conrad, Jeremiah, and her brother. Every summer she expects Conrad to notice her, but he never did. This summer, Conrad changed completely, he starts to smoke and stops talking to everyone, but so did Belly, she became pretty and her whole summer becomes out of control. I think my favourite character will definitely be Jeremiah because he's very friendly, humorous, and is always there for Belly to be her best friend no matter what. Whenever Belly is feeling down, he is there to solver her problems. I also love how the author uses many throwback chapters to let people know how much they have grown and to let us see what memories made Belly the person she is today. People should definitely read this book, Belly faces many problems that teens today can also experience, such as crush problems, puberty, friendship, and mostly growth. If you've read To All The Boys I Loved Before also by Jenny Han, you will love this book for sure!
